Osteoarthritis is a chronic painful disease of joints that involves the progressive destruction of the articular cartilage and bone and leads to pain. It affects both humans and animals. Animals can serve as models for the human disease and in this case we will study equine OA. There is currently no effective medication that can […]

“THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW”

This academic-industry collaboration aims to determine postharvest storage methods, combustion parameters and consumer behaviour for dried cannabis products that influence the physicochemical properties of cannabis ash, of which appearance (colour and integrity) has become an inadvertent dried cannabis product attribute that may drive consumer decisions towards legal distribution in a highly competitive market. Data generated […]

Hepatic encephalopathy is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. As an initial part of her thesis, the intern will contribute to determining priorities for the development of an outpatient cirrhosis database inclusive of hepatic encephalopathy quality measures. The findings will be disseminated through the intern’s thesis, peer-reviewed publications, and conference presentations, contributing to the […]

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide with approximately 8 million deaths in 2010. Most cancer treatments lack specificity and affect the whole body, with toxic effects on both cancerous and normal cells. The cytotoxic effect of a new therapy developed by Biomark Technologies, Inc. targeting cancer cells will be assessed. Biomark […]

As physical materials, water and glass play a key role in defining Vancouver’s unique urban soundscape. In the same way that light is refracted through prisms, so to is sound refracted through water and glass; so to is music, through the prisms of our minds as composers, performers, and as an urban community. Arcana Luminis […]

Engage Nova Scotia (ENS) leads the Quality of Life (QoL) Initiative in Nova Scotia (NS). In 2019, we asked ~13,000 Nova Scotians about 230-questions on their perceptions, feelings, and behaviors related to wellbeing. The results provided the largest single non-government dataset in Canada. We’re now preparing to do a novel analysis of the 2019 survey […]

This project aims to enhance responsible AI in dynamic environments by leveraging data drift detection and model adaptation techniques. By collaborating with IFS Canada, this project seeks to synergize academic exploration with real-world application, creating a dynamic partnership that bridges the gap between theoretical advancements and practical solutions. This project, focused on developing reliable AI […]

Ce projet de recherche porte sur l’étude approfondie des propriétés du Bauxsol™, un produit dérivé de résidus de bauxite, pour améliorer la qualité de l’eau dans les fosses de mines à ciel ouvert. Ces fosses sont généralement remplies d’eau après la fin des activités minières et contiennent des résidus miniers et des stériles susceptibles de […]

The project will enable contactless measurement of blood glucose using remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG) technology using patients’ face or finger videos which is a comparatively new artefact. There is a lack of training data and the blood volume pulse (BVP) signal extracted from the videos suffer from a lot of noise resulting in poor measurement accuracy. […]

The main objective of this project is to offer efficient and commercially viable solutions for wireless power transfer to portable devices such as Recon’s wearable units. The first phase of the research is dedicated to determine pros and cons of various such techniques and the maximum power and distance for wireless power delivery to such […]
